    Aw the steelies are gone!? Not gonna lie though they do ride like shit. Any idea on wheels your gonna get?

    Lol finally someone says they ride like shit. But look so good for a simple wheel. Its all about it not centering up when lugs tighten up. I think i just found the wheels Imma order today. Another custom order. Can't tell what but looking like 9.5 wide.

    Yayayaya!!!! Yeah the diamond racing wheels are so good looking but they're heavy as hell and give the worst ride ever. I ordered my wheels friday. Supposedly they shipped out today.. 16x8 front 16x9 rear. Gonna need to find somebody i can borrow a fender roller from. Id rather wait to find a roller than do it with a bat.

    Oh u got some new wheels coming. What offset u go with? Iv done both bat and a roller. Both my buddys have a roller. I like the bat

    offset in the front are 20 and rear are 15. I really would've liked to go with a lower offset, but they didn't offer these wheels in anything else. When they get to my house you guys will be the first to know..

    If your in Portland, I'm coming down the first week of April. If you wanna help it would be nice to meet some guys off the forum. I'll even pay you to help. But if not how much do you want to rent it?

    Ya I'm debating on what offset to do with 9.5. I'm thinking 15. And gonna pull my fenders more and try to get a lil less negative camber

    Have you ever used willtheyfit.com? You can put in your old wheel and tire size and see how the new wheel and tire size will compare. Its really handy if you don't wanna crunch the numbers yourself

So i installed the nardi wheel yesterday. Still have to take it off and adjust it a little bit. But I love the wheels. Wait till you guys see them :D
